"Oh, old friend, I'm so tired." The cow complained bitterly, "I really want to take a day off tomorrow."
After saying goodbye, the dog met the cat in the corner. The dog said, "Dude, I just went to see the cows. This big brother is really tired. He said he wanted to take a day off. " No wonder the master assigned it too much work. " ?
The cat turned to the sheep and said, "The cow complained that its owner gave it too much work. It wants to take a day off and stop working tomorrow. "
The sheep said to the chicken, "The cow doesn't want to work for its master. It complains that it has too much work. Alas, I wonder if other owners are kind to his cow. "
The chicken said to the pig, "A cow won't work for its master. It wants to visit other owners' houses. Really, the master didn't feel bad for Niu Yi at all, making him do so many heavy and dirty jobs and beating him roughly with a whip. "
Before dinner, the housewife fed the pig, and the pig came forward and said, "housewife, I want to talk to you." The cow has a lot of brain problems recently, so you should educate it well. He doesn't want to work for his master anymore. He thinks the work given to him by his master is too heavy, too dirty and too tired. It also said that it would leave its owner and find another owner. "
After getting the pig's report, at the dinner table, the housewife said to her master, "The cow is going to betray you. It wants to change its owner. Betrayal is unforgivable. What are you going to do with it? "
"Treat traitors and kill them without forgiveness!" The master gnashed his teeth.
Poor thing, a hardworking and honest cow was "killed" by rumors. ?
An old Jew lived in a small town. One day, he was sitting at home studying Jewish scriptures when suddenly there was a voice outside. He looked out of the window and found a group of naughty boys.
"It seems that we can only coax them out of here." The old man thought. So, he shouted to the group of children: "children, go to church quickly. A big monster has been fished out of the sea." Hearing this, the children all ran towards the church.
The old man proudly returned to his seat and continued his research. But after a while, there was another loud noise outside the window. He opened the window and saw several people running in the street. "Where are you going?" The old man asked. "Go to church! Haven't you heard? A monster in the sea, with five legs and a big head like a goat, comes from the church! "
The old man laughed to himself, thinking that his joke was a little too big, and then went on reading his scripture. But before he could concentrate, the footsteps and shouts outside the window became louder. It turned out that a large group of men, women and children were rushing towards the church. "What's the matter?"
The old man asked the crowd. "Don't you know?" People came running and said, "There is a monster in the sea in front of the church, with five legs, a big head like a goat and three eyes!" " "
Suddenly, the old man found a flustered exorcist in the crowd. "Well, even the exorcist went," the old man thought. "Maybe something really happened." The old man hurriedly put down the scriptures and hurried out of the door.
3. During the Warring States Period, the State of Qin crossed Korea and Wei to attack Qi, and Qi Weiwang ordered the general Zhang Kuang to lead an army to fight, and the two armies confronted Sancho. Being far away from the mainland, the rear is separated by North Korea and Wei, and afraid that they will attack from behind, they dare not fight a decisive battle easily. Wily puffed up knew this long ago, so he often sent messengers to Qin Jun to destroy the morale of the Qin people and planted spies among them.
Seeing that Zhang Kuang has no intention of fighting, some people think he will surrender, so they spread the news here. On hearing the news, the ministers of Qi played in succession, saying that they would soon defect to the enemy, hoping that the King of Qi would relieve him of his military power in case something unexpected happened. Qi Weiwang doesn't agree with everyone. He carefully analyzed the puffed-up personality and concluded that it was a pure frame-up.
Later, puffed up defeated Qin Jun in Sancho, and the rumor of mutiny was broken. This time, on the occasion of the confrontation between the two top teams in Chyi Chin, the coach of the Qi army was slandered. If the king of Qi is not rational enough, a cold change will inevitably have an adverse impact on the war situation. Fortunately, Qi Weiwang is a clever man. He doesn't believe other people's misinformation.
The same thing happened in the state of Qin, this time the prime minister. Although Qin Wuwang was not as firm as Qi Weiwang at that time, Gan Mao was a wise man, and he prepared for possible rumors.
4. On July 28th of the lunar calendar in 30 BC, Chang 'an, the capital of the Western Han Dynasty, was in chaos, and everyone was rumored that a flood was coming. Chen, a 9-year-old girl by the Weihe River, heard the rumor that the flood was coming and ran into the Hengcheng Gate. There was no certificate at the gate in front of Weiyang Palace.
Weiyang Palace is a symbol of imperial power in the Western Han Dynasty, and the daily life of the emperor is here. Since Emperor Huiwen of Han Dynasty, the emperor died here, but the palace guards didn't know anything about it.
In September, Emperor Han Chengdi wrote: "Floods occurred in various places, killing and injuring thousands. It is rumored in Beijing that the flood came for no reason, and the officials and people were all afraid and crowded to the heights. This is caused by the tyranny and injustice of the people. Send a doctor to inspect the world. "
During the adult period of the Western Han Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty, eunuchs, consorts and courtiers were constantly fighting for power and profits, and rumors of abolishing legislation were endless, and floods and droughts in various places continued, making people panic. In the autumn of 30 BC, it rained heavily for more than 40 days. Rumor has it that the capital is about to flood.
There is also a rumor about the flood in Upload to the King: In the autumn of the third year after the establishment of Emperor Hancheng, the people in Beijing panicked for no reason, saying that the flood was coming, and the people rushed to shout, and Chang 'an was in chaos.
The emperor personally visited the front hall and called the ministers to discuss. General Wang Feng thought that the empress dowager, the emperor and the concubines in the harem could take a boat and let the people enter the Chang 'an highland to avoid disaster. Ministers all agree with Wang Feng.
General Zuo said: "Even in a country without roads, floods can't drown the city walls. Besides, now that politics is peaceful and the world is peaceful, how can there be a big flood? This is definitely a rumor. People should not enter Miyagi, which will only make people more afraid. "
Afterwards, it was proved that Wang Shang's judgment on the rumor of flood was correct, and the corresponding measures he proposed also played a calming role. However, its so-called "political peace, no military revolution in the world, and peace up and down" is just a whitewash of peace. However, the court knew that the rumors about the flood were untrue, but did not dare to ignore the warning information transmitted by the rumors.
Emperor Cheng dotes on Queen Xu, and other concubines in the harem rarely get an audience. At that time, the Empress Dowager Cixi was in charge of state affairs, which was quite dissatisfied. Liu Xiang and others wrote that the reason of flood rumors lies in the exclusive rights of harem and consorts.
Emperor Cheng accepted their suggestion and wrote a letter to reduce the cost of the harem. After Xu refused to accept, he pleaded for himself. Emperor Cheng explained that the rumor of the flood was a warning from God to expand the harem.
The truth of the matter is that the rumor of the flood was caused by the continuous floods and droughts at that time, and the court did not have good relief measures, which caused panic among the people.
5. Worship of the Queen Mother of the West occupies an important position in the belief system of the Western Han Dynasty. From the stone reliefs and brick reliefs unearthed in the Han Dynasty, we can often see the image of the Queen Mother of the West. It was only during the reign of Emperor Ai of the Western Han Dynasty that an unprecedented and spectacular panic group incident occurred, which spread throughout the country and lasted for half a year.
According to Tian Wenzhi, in the first month of the first year of Eddie Jianping in 6 BC, a mass of white gas appeared in the sky, as wide as cloth and more than ten feet long. It flew to the southwest like thunder, and stopped after a while. People call this white gas "Tiangou". It is said that those who tell people but don't listen will suffer disaster.
This rumor lasted for three years. In the first month of the third year BC, the people rushed to tell each other that the Queen Mother of the West was coming and would pass by, holding a straw or a wooden stick in their hands as a sign to raise the Queen Mother of the West. When they meet someone, they will send one and call it a foster mother.
People like this often meet on the road, sometimes reaching thousands. These people either have long hair, bypass the pass and climb the wall at night, or run by car and horse to set up a post office for the Queen Mother of the West, because it is said that she has to go through 26 counties and countries to reach the capital.
In summer, Beijingers buy sacrificial supplies everywhere, singing and dancing in the ancestral hall of the Queen Mother of the West. Later, another book said: Mother told people that people who wear this book will not die. Do not believe, look at the door, it should be white hair. Ordinary people spread such rumors in fear and joined this activity, which eventually led to a huge social unrest, which did not stop until autumn.
In the era of Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty, based on the superstition of the Queen Mother of the West, millions of people gathered, called the police and fled with the slogan of "worshipping the Queen Mother of the West" and the organizational form of "spreading the word to the Queen Mother of the West". From Kanto to the capital, from January to autumn, the court actually lost control.
Judging from the scale of the incident, the enthusiasm of the participants and the breadth of the region involved, the belief in the Queen Mother of the West was quite common among the people before and after the incident. Later, Wang Mang used the new generation of Han Dynasty to rename the Empress of Han Yuan Emperor as "Queen Mother of Xinshi", which took advantage of this rumor and called it Xinshi Auspiciousness.
From the historical development, the spread of the Western Queen Mother incident was only a reflection of the belief of the Western Queen Mother at that time. Later, Buddhism was introduced into China, and the influence of the myth of the Western Queen Mother gradually weakened with the gradual establishment and height of the Buddha statue.
